Photos from: Turner's Country Club hosted gatherings for Little Jewell community




This is a recent photo of Frank Allen's homestead in the Little Jewell area southeast of Turner. The community took its name from a spring in a nearby coulee. Allen added a store and operated the post office, from 1913 to 1920, in one part of his homestead. The Little Jewell School, across the field from Allen's homestead, was opened in 1920 and operated until 1942. The school building was moved in to Turner and used as a classroom until the present school was built.
